Just two days in, and the collections at Lakme Fashion Week have been quite noteworthy...some for all the right reasons and others not so much. While there were plenty of glamorous, gorgeous designs that got our thumbs up, there were others that made us wonder...

So we decided to put together some of the designs we could not quite fathom and ask you whether you thought they were brilliant or simply bizarre. Check them out:

First up is this creation by Manish Arora. Known for his over-the-top creations, Arora showed a line that was just that!

This pair of shoes also made an appearance in the Manish Arora show. Sure they grab your attention but are they wearable?

Next up is this dress that is this dress from the Little Shilpa collection that showed on Day 2. It has some interesting lines and has been put together quite well, but how many people could really pull that look off?

Men in lace... an acquired taste?

If the previous outfit didn't much appeal to you, this one sure as heck won't. Also part of the Little Shilpa collection, it was more shock and awe than fashion chic. What do you think?

Fashion overkill?

If you didn't guess it already, this one's from Little Shilpa too. Fit for Lady Gaga don't you think?

Towering stilletos

Platform heels might be 'in' but if heights give you the chills, these ain't for you. This pair of towering platforms made an appearance at Manish Arora's showing. Hit or miss?

Shrivan Narresh presented a swimwear line on Day 2 that pushed the limits of wearability. Here's a sampling.
